A desk-based review was carried out and identified four prehistoric sites located in the area occupied by Bee Low Quarry. Neolithic polished stone axes found there indicated that the site had possible ritual associations, as well as a Bronze Age barrow. There was little evidence for Roman or pre-Conquest archaeology within the area, however the potential for medieval evidence was high. Further archaeological mitigation was required if development went ahead. [AIP] 6/10 (D.32.Q007) TF 40309560 CONISHOLME FEN WIND PARK Environment Statement. Parts I and II of IV.

An archaeological desk-based assessment was carried out in advance of a proposed wind farm. A subsequent geophysical survey and field evaluation were also completed. The results were the identification of a late Iron Age/early Romano-British site with an associated enclosure, internal ditches and a series of pits. The site appeared to have gone out of use by the mid 2nd century AD. Further archaeological mitigation was suggested.

Scattered evidence for prehistoric and Romano-British activity in the general vicinity was identified. There was no evidence for archaeological remains within the study area. Any archaeological remains within western and northern parts of the study area would have been removed by previous clay extraction activity. The south-eastern part of the study area, if also quarried would potentially also have archaeological remains which would be removed.

The proposed facilities would be on previously mined land and a car park, with no sub-surface changes so would have no negative impact on any archaeological deposits. There was a possibility that Holocene deposits would have been present on site and a scheme was planned in order to make an environmental record of the site.

It concluded that the study area had a low potential for archaeology. However the potential for the retrieval of archaeologically significant data was seen as quite high. A further scheme of detailed observation and recording was planned if the development went ahead.

The assessment identified a high probability that evidence of earlier workings relating to earlier mining activity would have survived within the study area. This was in the form of tips and a crushing circle. Apart from small areas of exposed/polished bedrock and stone walls, no extant archaeological features were recorded within the study area.

The assessment concluded that the potential for archaeology from the prehistoric and early medieval periods was high. Both surveys did not identify any defined focus of archaeological activity but did locate surface finds. The overall conclusion was that the range of medieval and later medieval finds located within the study area were probably a result of manuring. There appeared to be little evidence for significant human/settlement activity within the study area.

It replaces the previous Minerals Local Plan adopted in 1997. The purpose of the plan is to balance society’s needs for minerals, which are essential to our economy and way of life, against the environmental harm and disruption that mineral extraction can cause. The plan aims to achieve this by meeting demand for minerals by both allocating suitable areas of land for mineral extraction and promoting the use of waste materials to reduce demand for natural resources. The plan also contains a comprehensive set of policies designed to minimise environmental impact, for example by protecting important wildlife areas, controlling traffic movements and ensuring sites are properly reclaimed. Indeed, reclamation schemes can result in environmental gains by creating valuable new habitats and recreational areas, and these are also

    ELECTORAL REVIEW OF NOTTINGHAMSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL - APPENDIX 1 Submission by Nottinghamshire County Council on Council Size Governance and Decision Making – How does the Council manage its business and take decisions across its full range of responsibilities? Leadership 1.1 What kind of Governance The Council operated Executive governance arrangements with a arrangements are in place for the Leader/Cabinet model from 2001-2012. In 2012, and in response to the Authority? provisions of the Localism Act 2011, the Council reviewed its governance arrangements and, for the reasons set out below, decided that a move to a modern Committee system was appropriate. It was recognised that local government in general had become more transparent and accountable in the years since the Council had last operated a Committee system. The current committee system was designed to take account of lessons learned from previous governance arrangements enabling an agile and streamlined system of decision-making. After thorough consideration and public consultation on the proposal (referred to below), the Council changed its governance arrangements effective from 17th May 2012. The reasons for the change as set out in the report to Council were that this is the most democratic form of governance enabling all Councillors to be involved in decision making, gain experience of a wide range of Council functions and shape the policy of the Council. In addition, Committees, rather than individual Councillors, make decisions ensuring greater transparency as reports are publically available prior to decisions being made, meetings are held in public and it is clear who is making decisions. As indicated the proposal was subject to public consultation, which showed 1 general support as it was felt that the change gave Councillors more influence and better access to information and, thus, greater ability to respond to constituents’ needs.

Introduction The Borough of Gedling is an amalgamation of a number of villages and towns, created by the 1974 reorganisation of local government. Stretching from the River Trent in the south east to Sherwood Forest in the north west, its settlements include once separate communities that have become part of the Greater Nottingham conurbation as well as ten rural parishes incorporating country villages which have retained their rural charm. The Borough boasts heritage of local, regional, national and international significance. Newstead Abbey, home of Lord Byron, is perhaps the Borough’s most famous landmark. Other less well known but equally important assets include Papplewick Pumping Station and Bestwood Winding Engine. The Borough is the birthplace of William Lee, inventor of the mechanised stocking frame in Calverton in 1589; of Richard Parkes Bonington, the renowned 19th century landscape artist; and of Thomas Hawkesley, who designed and built Britain's first high pressure constant supply water system, preventing the deaths of countless millions of people around the world. Evidence suggests human occupation of what is now Arnold began in the late Bronze Age, while notable remnants of an Iron Age fort have been discovered near Woodborough at Foxwood, now one of the Borough's nine Scheduled Ancient Monuments.

    Renewable Energy: Wind Farm Perspectives – the Case of Africa

    Renewable Energy: Wind Farm Perspectives – The Case of Africa Yohannes Yihdego1, Hilmi S. Salem2*, and Musa Yahaya Pudza3 1Snowy Mountains Engineering Corporation (SMEC), Sydney, New South Wales 2060, Australia 2Sustainable Development Research Institute, Bethlehem, West Bank, Palestine (Occupied) 3Department of Chemical and Environmental Engineering, University Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia Received October 31, 2017; Accepted December 18, 2017 Abstract: This paper is on the push and choice for a greener and environmentally sustainable energy, particularly wind energy. A single wind turbine produces a limited amount of carbon emissions throughout its lifecycle. By taking a broader view, wind energy farms (or wind farms) have collectively a greater impact upon the environment and economy. Recent research on wind farms tends to focus on energy-generated modelling for the cushioning and mitigation of the climate-change malady, hence to enable accurate prediction of power generation. This paper presents an approach to wind energy, with respect to: (i) carbon emissions and intensity; (ii) potential energy production; (iii) return on economic investment; and (iv) payback-time from an early design perspective. The overall contribution of this work is to develop an approach to enable the selection of “greener” options represented in renewable energy sources, particularly the wind energy, with the focus on economic feasibility assessment and environmental impacts. This study represents, to top-management, industrialists (such as wind-turbines’ manufacturers), environmentalists, and engineers, as well as to wind-energy services’ providers, research scientists, and policy- and decision-makers, an assessment of the choices and options of wind-energy provision and in investing in its industry and development, as a clean and sustainable technology to generate electric power.
